Reports classes that override the
<code>clone()</code> method but don't implement the <code>Cloneable</code> interface.
This usually represents a programming error.
<!-- tooltip end -->
<p>
  Use the <b>Only warn on 'public' clone methods</b> option to ignore methods that aren't <code>public</code>.</p>
<p>For classes designed to be inherited, you may choose to override <code>clone()</code> and declare it as <code>protected</code>
without implementing the <code>Cloneable</code> interface and decide whether to implement the <code>Cloneable</code> interface in subclasses.
